Note on The Order policies

[Dusty Lens]

I'm inclined to throw my support in with Xoria, who inexorably speaks wisdom.

What's curious is that he somehow finds the ability to express his views without degrading into personal attacks and fear mongering.

Tenacity, you maintain that you're a clever lad, why don't you consider going ahead with your lot and making the Order council? As it catches on more people will want to be involved and to become involved they'll likely end up reviewing their day to day affairs. Heck, continue to maintain the registry and encourage more people to participate in it.

I'm not a thinking man, but if I were, I'd be thinking that communities are built on mutual enjoyment and willingness to cooperate, not on sanctioned exploding. Sanctioned exploding generally results in people leaving, or two hundred pages of blahzyblah.

I personally feel that the real question is if factions should be required to pay 500,000,000.

This is one of the examples of something that developed, as opposed to being imposed from the get go.

There was a dark time in discovery, a time of Junker mercenary nomads Hessian whalesharks faction proposals coming up twenty a day with a regularity which suggested that some nightmarish machine had just begun to spill its dark brood into our otherwise tranquil forum.

To which I wouldn't say that it stifles creative thought, just nebulous half formed thought.

The 500 million is a put up or shut up fund. Supposedly it goes to a guard system, though I do feel that idea is rather broken given the number of guard systems about for persons to acquire.
